Step 3: Find minecraft.jar and right click, and click on "Open With" and "Archive Utility."
The archive utility will create a new folder called .minecraft. Since, this is the new folder, the minecraft.jar is still intact. You can therefore modify and delete the new folder without altering your minecraft.jar. Create a new folder in your desktop, and drag all the necessary files into it. Now you are ready to edit. If using Archive Utility results in a file called minecraft.jar.cpgz, try instead changing the file extension from .jar to .zip to achieve the desired affect.

What is a texture pack?

A texture pack is a zip file containing a series of special images that can be used by Minecraft to change the appearance of almost every aspect of the game, from blocks and water to weapons and mobs.
The core of a texture pack is an image file called the terrain.png. This file determines how the blocks that make up the majority of the Minecraft world look. Almost all texture packs you will find have edited the terrain.png. Some texture packs, however, only edit mobs or items, and are called 'Mob packs' and 'Item packs,' respectively.
Why you should make a texture pack?
There are many reasons to make a texture pack.
For most texture artists, the main reason is to replace the default look of Minecraft with a customized look. Texture packs can create any sort of atmosphere you can imagine, from fantasy to steampunk to post-apocalyptic. Texture packs can also be made to enhance the world of a custom map and give certain blocks the specific look needed for that map.
Sometimes an artist will make a texture pack in order to practice their artistic skills or to try out a new artistic technique. There are many packs that are made with a specific art style-- such as impressionism or pixel art-- to allow the artist to flex his/her creative muscles.
And last (but certainly not least), texture packs are often made just for fun. Watching your art come alive through Minecraft is both exhilarating and inspiring, regardless of skill level.
